A Vermont Interstate Rest Area – Picture taken over 15 years after it was installed. Simple to disinfect. Wash with bleach and water as directed by CDC and you are done.

Scores of customer have taken full advantage of our systems to make spaces very easy to disinfect. Some of them have used our seamless systems on their floors, walls and ceilings. These seamless systems have no place for a virus or bacterial to hide. They are using enhanced disinfecting, and doing so without harming our material.

We can show you how to do this to your facility. Here are some of the kinds of places that this has been done. At minimum most do floors and cove.

  • Athletic Facilities
  • Food Manufacturing Facilities
  • Grocery Stores
  • Hospitals
  • Kennels
  • Laboratories
  • Nursing Homes
  • Pharmaceutical Facilities
  • Research Facilities
  • Restaurants
  • Schools
  • Stores
  • Veterinary Facilities

Epoxy.com Product #441 vs #442

October 20, 2017

What is the difference between Epoxy.com Product #441 and Product #442?

441 and 442 Duel Component Urethane

How They are the Same

Both Products are two component water- based aliphatic (non-yellowing) polyurethane. both products are free of the health and environmental problems normally found in solvent-based urethanes, while maintaining excellent performance properties.

Both Epoxy.com Product #441 and  Product #442  have good chemical, stain, and mar resistance. In addition, it’s easy to clean and has excellent color retention under heavy foot traffic.

Both products high performance coating for use in a variety of seamless floor and wall coating systems.

Both Products eliminates the strong solvent odor normally associated with high performance materials.

They are both ideal for topcoats and finishes that require high abrasion resistance. Typical application areas are clean rooms, hospitals, pharmaceutical facilities, stained concrete, wood floors, and as a seal coat for most Epoxy.com floor and wall coating systems.

How They Are Different

Epoxy.com Product #441 is a satin Finish

Epoxy.com Product  #442 polyurethane provides a gloss finish.

Epoxy Injection of Structures Part 2

Infrastructure Repairs Using Epoxy

Epoxy Concrete Injection Epoxy Wood Injection, epoxy crack repair

Epoxy Structural Concrete and Wood Repair / Waterproofing

The following article is written with enough information about resin injection systems to help protect the Owner from the misuse or improper installation of an injection systems.   For more information contact me: Norm Lambert.

This is the second in a series on Infrastructure Repairs Using Epoxy. Part One was Introduction to Epoxy Injection.  If your have not read that yet you may want to go back and read it before you proceed with reading this.

Part 2: Crack Analysis Before Epoxy Injection

As with all repair and rehabilitation of concrete, the initial job analysis is by far the most important step. Epoxy Injection Resin will weld concrete cracks but, of course, will not repair the cause of the cracking.

Analyze each potential injection application to determine the exact cause or causes of the cracking. Correcting the cracking problem can be fairly simple, or may be difficult involving design changes.

Consult a structural engineer when design changes are necessary. Do this before starting the injection. Repairing cracks by Injection is effective after these design changes. Prevent future cracks by fixing the original cause of the cracking, when ever possible.

Parking garages are an example of cracking problem that require a structural engineering analysis.Epoxy.com Epoxy Inection Often inadequate design for expansion/contraction is the cause for parking garage structural cracking. Avoid weld injecting a crack if there are not enough expansion joints. Sometimes flexible overlays such as Epoxy.com System # 495 can be used to overcome this defect. This does not however encapsulate the rebar in a way that will totally stop the premature deterioration of the steel. Often times additional joints are needed, thus the analysis of cracking problems is critical.

Bridge decks and slab on grades can often be repaired with Epoxy.com Product #684LV crack healer and sealer and save some of the cost of doing epoxy injection.
